Project Colony

I was selected for Thermaltake 2021 CaseMOD Invitational season 1 to represent the UK

We where given the Thermaltake Core P8 case to mod with there LCS from June till October 15th 2021 I received the parts mid August due to Covid restrictions, was tough going die to working full time five to six day week and also fitting family time in.

The build is free hand using 18mm mdf for the main base of the spaceshipand 12mm for the rest of the mod. For the exterior i used old laptops and pc parts for the detail.

Also utalizing the parts from the Core P8 case for the bridge,ssd holders, hard driver holders and the whole mod sits on the Core P8 stand a few inches off the ground giving that flying / floating effect.

I added any old stuff i had lying around the house for more detail like Lynx deodorant lids for the guns old Persil liquid lids ect. I 3d printed the rear thrusters, satellite array, vents and rear conduit the TT men where resin printed and hand painted.

The ship as 1.3m long by 900 wide and stripe down for easy access to LCS and pc parts, this also makes it easier to transport.

If you like my mod please drop me a vote over at Thermaltake forums under 2021 CaseMOD Invitational season 1, final vote starts now.
